Twitter’s 5 tips for a successful knowledge base

Twitter has grown rapidly over the last few years, adding employees, offices, and acquisitions as quickly as the next trending topic explodes and dies away. Growth and change internally puts a burden on the IT team to scale support, and they’ve done that with a robust knowledge base in Confluence. To get the scoop, I sat down with Twitter’s Manager of IT, Alex Stillings, and IT Support Engineer, Alex Hernandez.

How to get $#*! done faster with the new Confluence dashboard

We thought about how people start their days and their work in Confluence. We listened to feedback about the content people need right away and how often they access it. And we discovered that most of you spend the vast majority of your time working in one space, and highly value getting back to recent work as quickly as possible. So, we made it easier to find and resume your work with a brand new Confluence dashboard.
